Spontonality 2018 Workshop

Improvisation is the heart beat of innovation - a life skill that transfers and translates to all creativity. Tim West

The music improvisation extravaganza, Spontonality, returns to Cornwall following the great sounds and success of previous visits. This year the musicians are collaborating with Falmouth University, and they will be based at AMATA, Penryn Campus, Falmouth University.

Three virtuoso players from different traditions will come together to perform music improvisation throughout the week (15 - 20 October). This year, pianist and instigator Tim West will be in collaboration with saxophonist Tony Woods and cellist Zoë Martlew.

In addition to playing with dedicated student groups, and anyone passing by during their daily jam sessions at Falmouth University this year, Spontonality will make time to return to Park View day centre for adults with learning disabilities in Helston and spend another day with the budding music students at Helston Community College.

The general public are invited to come along to a free, extraordinarily playful event on Saturday 20 October at AMATA; with a combination of morning workshop and afternoon performance on offer. Participation is encouraged and always optional... but hard to resist!
